During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 614 Sister-in-law is getting better and better. A new assistant has arrived.

During the cocktail party, people were toasting each other.

After getting the promise, Fan Bingbing did not pester Wei Jin, but frequently wandered around the capital circle, looking for more opportunities.

Of course, now that she has Shanhe Media and Wei Jin behind her, she naturally doesn't have to be servile, fawning, or even sell her body like in her previous life.

However, relevant social interactions and entertainment are still indispensable, after all, this is the rule of survival in the entertainment industry.

Unless one reaches the stage of the Wei and Jin dynasties and forms one's own school, one will eventually have to choose to cooperate with those within the circle.

However, compared to Fan Bingbing's success, Zhong Lifang, who is running on a tightrope, is encountering obstacles everywhere.

At this moment, this strong woman, who is not even forty years old, is almost in despair.

A year ago, Pony.com acquired Digital Domain with great enthusiasm to fill a gap in special effects.
Half a year ago, Xiao Ma righteously rejected Huayi's acquisition, unwilling to make wedding dresses for others.

All of this relies on Li Ming and Zhong Lifang's confidence in Xiaoma's listing.

Unfortunately, no one expected that this A-share self-examination would last for a whole year, during which time no company completed an IPO.

In October, as a professional manager, Zhong Lifang had proposed to Xiaoma that it should give up independent listing and seek a backdoor listing.

Unfortunately, backdoor listing on the A-share market is not that easy.

Especially the gambling situation of Xiao Ma, which is known to everyone, so the shell company will naturally raise the price.

It’s a pity that the board of directors is full of parasites. They have no vision or responsibility. They procrastinate and delay, and have already missed the best opportunity.

Now, there are only three weeks left before the deadline of the bet. No matter which method is used, Pony.com's listing plan has become impossible to complete.

In other words, failure in the bet is an inevitable outcome.

According to the agreement, if the bet fails, Xiao Ma will have to bear at least 10 billion in cash debt.

The biggest reason why Zhong Lifang appears here today is to hope that colleagues in the circle can lend a hand and help Xiao Ma overcome the difficulties.

Unfortunately, since ancient times, there have been many cases of adding icing on the cake, but very few cases of providing timely assistance.

In more than half an hour, she has already met with the CEOs of several giant companies including Huayi, Bona, and Chengtian.

Without exception, all were rejected.

What's worse, some people like Hua Yi actually took advantage of her misfortune and attacked her in public.

Although Wang Zhonglei offered very good conditions and was willing to give a lot of shares, Zhong Lifang, who was highly valued and supported by Li Ming, naturally would not leave Xiao Ma under such circumstances.

So she set her sights on the most dazzling man in the venue.

After sorting out her thoughts, Zhong Lifang held the red wine glass and walked towards Wei Jin with energy.

"Hello, Mr. Wei, is it convenient for us to chat?

Wei Jin, who was eating fruit, turned around when he heard the words, and saw that Zhong Lifang still had a gentle smile on her face, but it seemed like she was forcing it.

"Mr. Zhong, long time no see, let's go over there and talk."

Wei Jin walked in front by himself, and Zhong Lifang followed closely. This was her last chance.

"Mr. Zhong, I know roughly what you are here for. Xiao Ma doesn't have much time, and I don't want to talk about so many twists and turns. How about I make a condition, would you listen to it first?"

"Mr. Wei, please speak."

Zhong Lifang pretended to listen attentively. She knew that she was now in a situation where she was the fish on the chopping board and Xiao Ma had no initiative.

"10 billion in cash, 5% of the shares."

As soon as Wei Jin finished speaking, Zhong Lifang shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Boss Wei, this is impossible. Not to mention that Xiao Ma's valuation was as high as 3 billion two years ago, 50% of the shares is too much."

"Mr. Zhong, as far as I know, apart from the 15% of Jianyin Culture, more than % of the shares are in the hands of Mr. Li and his relatives.

Even if they sell 50%, the Li family will still be the second largest shareholder of Xiao Ma. Isn't it better to be a rich and idle person than to be heavily in debt after losing the bet? "

Zhong Lifang remained silent. If Li Ming was willing to be a rich and idle person, why would he take the huge risk and sign the gambling agreement?
After taking a deep breath, Zhong Lifang calmed herself down and made a final effort.

"Mr. Wei, how about this? 9 million in cash, Xiao Ma is willing to give up 30% of the shares. Please lend a hand in consideration of our cooperation over the years. Xiao Ma and I will be grateful."

Zhong Lifang's tone was sincere, even a little pleading, but Wei Jin remained unmoved.

"Mr. Zhong, we can talk slowly about the valuation. But I must have more than 50% of the shares. You should know that the biggest problem with Xiao Ma is that I can't use money to cover the bottom line for those people. They must leave. This is my bottom line."

To be honest, Wei Jin's conditions are not harsh, and are even very friendly to the current pony.

After all, once Shanhe Media acquires shares, the benefits will definitely not be as simple as sufficient funds.

But Zhong Lifang knew very well that Xiao Ma was a family business, and the Li family would never give up their power. Even if Li Ming agreed, no one else would agree.

And Li Ming obviously can't have the final say!
So Zhong Lifang forced a smile and said, "Mr. Wei, thank you for your sincerity, but Xiao Ma can't accept it. I'm really sorry."

"It doesn't matter. Even if the deal fails, there is still friendship."

Wei Jin shrugged and didn't care. He had no interest in the pony itself.

All of the latter's businesses overlap with Shanhe Media, so it doesn't make much sense to invest in it or not. It just adds a more mature behind-the-scenes team.

Instead, the woman in front of him made him more interested, so he invited her again:
"Mr. Zhong, I still say that the door of Shanhe Media is always open to you."

Zhong Lifang could feel the sincerity in Wei Jin's words, and she felt grateful when she thought of the many times he had recruited her since they met.

"Thank you, Mr. Wei. I won't bother you for now. Goodbye."

"See you."

After the cocktail party, media reports on the premiere also occupied a lot of space in the film information section.

Wei Jin took Fan Bingbing back to the Golden House, intending to enjoy the charm of this woman.

But it was obvious that Fan Bingbing was more anxious than him. As soon as they arrived at the place, her fiery red lips kissed him. Wei Jin hugged her plump waist and responded passionately.

To be honest, Fan Bingbing is almost a perfect bed partner. She has fair skin, beautiful looks, and great breasts and legs.

The only flaw may be that the frame is a little big and the waist-to-hip ratio is slightly worse.

Of course, this is only compared with those willow-waisted and paper-thin beauties.

Anyway, Wei Jin quite likes this fleshy feeling.

At this moment, Wei Jin's hands were divided into two groups:
One route went up along the waist and occupied the high ground; the other route went around the waist and went down to set up camp.

But perhaps it was because he hadn't exercised for a long time, Fan Bingbing couldn't hold it in any longer.

She just pushed Wei Jin's chest with her hands, and her long black hair instantly flew away.

Wei Jin played with Fan Bingbing's crystal earlobes and gave her encouragement. A few minutes later, Fan Bingbing turned around and lay on the sofa, looking back and flirting, saying:

"Director, the actors are already in place, please give us your guidance~~"

"Okay, let me see how good my sister-in-law's acting is."

After saying that, Wei Jin lifted the hem of her red skirt.

Judging from the situation, the actors were indeed ready to start filming, so Wei Jin did not hesitate. With a "rip" sound, like the sound of a stagehand hitting the board, he raised the loud speaker and started filming.
As Wei Jin expected, the movie "New Police Story 2013" was given special treatment.

The relevant departments personally came out to promote that this is the "story of mainland police" and the role played by Brother Cheng Long also represents the image of mainland police.

Although the meaning of the words did not require a private viewing of the entire theater, we are all thousand-year-old foxes, so who can't understand Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio?

So a large number of audiences from related professions went to the cinema to watch this movie.

The box office of nearly 70 million on the first day and the photo that went viral online of "a cinema thief surrounded by dozens of plainclothes police officers" are the best proof.

However, the overall potential of today's film market is growing, and the impact on the other domestic films is not that great.

At least, the winner had already been decided before the film was released.

"The Suspect" has been released for 15 days and the total box office has reached 5.48 million, and the daily box office remains around 1500 million.

It has to be said that Fan Bingbing's appeal among the four Dan and two Bing is indeed unique.

In comparison, "The Four 2" is different.

After earning 9580 million in box office in the first three days of the weekend, the daily box office has been falling again and again!
After five working days, the box office revenue was less than 70 million.

The movie has been released for 8 days now, and the total box office has been reported to be 1.62 million, but the daily box office is only seven or eight million.

The decline in daily box office has caused pain in the film industry, because this is no longer a normal decline, but an avalanche.

The situation of "The Four 2" has also caused the film production industry to once again have some resistance to traditional martial arts films.

Many media outlets are predicting a pessimistic trend, and that martial arts films may really be hopeless.

Lu Yang was busy with post-production work at Shanhe Shui Mo, and he also read the news.

However, in his eyes, the "No One 2" on his hands is different from "The Four 2", and he is also different from Chen Jiashang.

"It's not that martial arts movies are out of fashion, it's that Chen Jiashang can't keep up with the times. He still sticks to the same old routine without any new breakthroughs. He's out of date."

After muttering to himself, Lu Yang immersed himself in the post-production work of "No One in My Eyes 2" again.

He is confident that once this movie is released, martial arts films will become great again!

On Sunday, Wei Jin's assistant interview began.

Early in the morning, Chen Yuqi dressed herself up beautifully and left the hotel.

She was born in 92 and is only 21 years old this year. She is a junior student at Jincheng Art College.

Compared with the three major art colleges in China, Jincheng Art College, located in Shu, obviously has no competitiveness.

Many of my seniors are living a miserable life after graduation, either drifting around in Hengdian or in Beijing, and only a few of them have made a name for themselves.

Chen Yuqi naturally didn't want to go down this old path.

She clearly remembered the advice of a senior sister: If you want to do well in the entertainment industry, you must take some shortcuts.

What's more, Wei Jin's assistant is definitely the best starting point in the circle.

Bai Bin, Wang Zixuan, and even her fellow Shu native Huang Mengying, have all proved this!
So when she learned that Wei Jin was recruiting an assistant, she submitted her resume early.

After nearly two months of anxiety, she finally received the final exam notice. She still cannot describe the feeling she had at that moment.

After all, she is not the only smart person, and the competition is definitely more intense than for the leading actress in a movie.

As far as she knew, there were at least several people who submitted resumes to Jincheng Art College, but almost all of them failed in the first round.

Sitting in the taxi at this moment, Chen Yuqi was even more excited but also a little nervous and apprehensive.

However, looking at the driver, who looked at her through the rearview mirror from time to time, Chen Yuqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. All external preparations had been made, and the rest was left to fate.

There was no conversation along the way, and the taxi soon stopped in front of Shanhe Building. After paying the fare, Chen Yuqi looked up at the tall building, a little dazed.

Perhaps taking this step, her life will be completely different.

"Brother Qian, come on!"

Chen Yuqi pursed her lips and took a deep breath, secretly cheering herself up in her heart. Then a smile appeared on her face, and she walked into the building with graceful steps.

What comes into view is a hall with a height of more than ten meters and a very luxurious decoration. It is indeed worthy of being the top entertainment group in the industry.

With satisfaction about her future working environment, Chen Yuqi walked towards the front desk and saw a girl with a bun playing with her mobile phone.

“Is the front desk so leisurely?”

After mumbling something in her mind, Chen Yuqi greeted politely, "Hello, I'm Chen Yuqi, and I'm here to interview Mr. Wei's assistant."

Zhang Wen put her phone down and looked up. She was pretty good, a fresh and attractive beauty with a bit of a girl-next-door style.

"Please wait a moment. Someone from the secretary's office will come to pick you up soon."

"Ok."

About a few minutes later, an office lady came up to Chen Yuqi.

"Chen Yuqi, right? Come with me. Let's go to the reception room and wait for a while. At half past ten, President Wei will interview you personally."

"Okay, thank you sister."

Chen Yuqi smiled sweetly, then bowed slightly, but the OL girl didn't say much and turned and left.

Seeing this, Chen Yuqi stuck out her tongue and followed decisively.

There was no conversation along the way. She was taken to a reception room of about several dozen square meters, where three young and beautiful girls were already waiting.

Chen Yuqi knew that these three should be her competitors.

After taking a closer look, Chen Yuqi became even more nervous, as each one of them seemed to be no worse than her.

One of the girls in particular not only has a sweet look, but also has great "advantages".

"It's over. How can we compete with this?"

As Chen Yuqi's heart sank to the bottom, the interview began
